NBA Midseason Storylines

Carmelo Anthony has been the LeBron James of 2010-11, despite his claim of wanting to handle things differently. Ever since the Nuggets offered Anthony a three-year, $65 million contract extension in June -- which the star forward has held off on signing -- rumors and reports of his next move have hovered over the season. Remember Chris Paul's infamous toast at Carmelo's New York wedding in July? Remember the Nets' first failed trade attempt in September? Remember that three-team deal that appeared hours away from completion in January before being pronounced dead on Jan. 19? Yeah, welcome to the NBA's 'Melo-drama.
